Default Wheel Hop 1969 Mustang

I have a 1969 mustang. I just replaced the rear center section and axles to get it driveable. I took it for a test drive and the wheel hop is ridiculous. How can I eliminate this? It has a 8 inch rear end. Do the lakewood traction bars work? Any links to parts or help would be appreciated. Not looking for any parts where I have to use a welder. Thank You!!

If you want something that will work, get a set of traction masters and get them welded on. As much as you might dislike the idea, they're what work.

Lakewood bars are marginally effective and inhibit proper leaf spring operation. True traction bars allow the leaf springs to do their job without allowing axle-wrap
